What makes a company a truly great workplace: insights from Coface-BDI’s survey

What makes a workplace truly great, and can you really measure it with data? In this episode of Return on Love, Dori Kafri, CEO of develeap, sits down with Daniella Raz from Coface-BDI, Israel’s leading business intelligence and rating firm behind the “Best Companies to Work For” ranking. Together, they explore how surveys and numbers can actually reflect something very human: feeling valued, trusted, and part of something bigger at work. They talk about what Coface-BDI sees again and again in companies that employees love, why “engagement” as a KPI is often not enough, and what it really means to lead with people at the center. Dori also shares how develeap’s people-first, employee-owned model helped the company reach 31st place on the 2025 list of best hi-tech companies to work for in Israel — and why that ranking is a by-product of a much deeper philosophy. Tune in to learn what happens when culture meets data, and why it matters for every leader and every team.
